Commit v2.8.11~156^2~2 (Expand includes and defines transitively
in 'external' genexes., 2013-02-13) introduced a recursive loop
and a stack overflow during evaluation of a link implementation
which depends on a transitive property, such as
add_library(empty1 ...)
add_library(empty2 ...)
target_link_libraries(empty1
PRIVATE
$<$<STREQUAL:$<TARGET_PROPERTY:INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES>,/foo/bar>:empty2>
)
There is no use-case for code like that currently, but it should not
cause a stack overflow.
Avoid the recursion by reporting an error early if a case like this
is found.
Set the minimum required version of CMake high enough to avoid the
warning for CMAKE_LEGACY_CYGWIN_WIN32. The warning appears on stderr
and breaks the expected output matching.
This is both a short form of using a TARGET_DEFINED expression
together with a TARGET_PROPERTY definition, and a way to strip
non-target content from interface properties when exporting.
